PUPO

Pregnant until proven otherwise.



It's all we infertiles have to hold on to during a two week wait after IVF. We can't read into all the twinges, cramps, or sore boobs because the meds we're on create those situations. We can't pee on a stick early because the HCG booster is still in our system. We do blood work at 4 weeks, not 8. And, we'll most likely see our baby via ultrasound 2 or more times by the time a 'normal' pregnant woman has her blood work preformed.

There's a lot that continues to separate our experiences. But, I'm not going to drone on about that.

Instead, I'll let you know that every 5am wake-up call, shot in my now numb ass, bruise on my body, mental breakdown, blue suppository, new found BO, and random hot flash is welcomed. Bring it on!
